Marvin Sandnes: 73, sailor, skier, Grad of PSU, 4 kids, 4 grandkids, small business in Salem for 53 yrs., grew up in Mt. Angel and have sailed Dist. 5’s oceans, snorkeled her rivers, climbed her Mtns, picked her berries and beans, hoed her hops, active in her politics, at the Oregon Legislature.

I’m running to encourage dialogue about our insane military murders of innocent 3rd world people for money.

Vote for Marvin helps us make this statement about stopping the WAR.

Outspoken, fearless, articulate, well read, and intimately know this District.

Our trees are dying, our Ocean is dying – Cut defense spending and use those talents and resources to find solutions to the destruction of our home.

As a minor party candidate I can speak about these un-speakable issues – so many taboos in our public dialogue.

Abortion: I don’t like Govt. involved in a mother’s decision, and I don’t like those opposed to abortion paying their taxes for abortions. Personally, I think human life begins at conception, I don’t think that view can be impose on another.

No tax on food, nutrition and health are RIGHTS, perhaps constitutional amendment is necessary.

No tolls on I-5 or 205.

Nope, Congresspeople see their responsibility as getting re-elected. We must have term limits to ensure citizen representation in D.C. and Oregon’s Legislature.

Bipartisanship is a joke, we have 1 political party – a War Party. We need wider political representation to encourage voters participate – 38% voting in Oregon is not democratic process. Ranked Choice Voting is an excellent start.

Political climate: We do not discuss the WAR, the destruction of the environment, the end of democratic process. Why have we abdicated all discussion to media?

I wish someone would ask about the WAR and why we’ve murdered 3 million innocent people and have created a $21 trillion debt for our great grand children.

My mom when I was 6: “Marvin, if you tell the truth, your problem will begin to get better right away.”

Under water in Oregon’s Ocean and rivers.

Oregon Ducks, unless Oregon State’s having a good year – then I’m a Beaver.

Why these questions do not ask about the WAR or the 7 countries the US is bombing this morning, or Afri-Com’s bases in Africa – “Cooperative Security Locations”? We know why: These are prohibited topics America’s media is forbidden to discuss. Disgusting!
